Where to Find Great Investment Ideas

Welcome to Episode #175 of the Zacks Market Edge Podcast.

Every week, host and Zacks stock strategist, Tracey Ryniec, will be joined by guests to discuss the hottest investing topics in stocks, bonds and ETFs and how it impacts your life.

In this episode, Tracey is joined by Zacks Director of ETF Research, Neena Mishra, to talk about what newspapers and magazines they read to discover new investing ideas.

You don’t have to read the paper versions, as digital will work just fine, but both newspapers and magazines provide a plethora of investing ideas for both stocks and ETFs.

Newspapers: Old Fashioned or a Great Source?

No one does it better than some of the large international newspapers like the Wall Street Journal and the Financial Times.

They have hundreds of reporters around the globe covering businesses and economic trends.

Both offer some free articles every month before you need to subscribe. Also, look for subscriber deals.

Neena uses the Financial Times to find ETF ideas in Space, Robotics and FinTech.

This weekly paper offers some great stock lists. It’s especially good at targeting small cap stocks you might not have heard of like Five Below (FIVE - Free Report) .

Top Magazines for Stock Ideas

Despite being left for dead, people are still reading magazines.

Bloomberg Businessweek is great at covering trending topics like pot, social media and beauty.

It will also drill down into a company so investors can get a better idea of the business.

Recently, it featured Intuitive Surgical’s (ISRG - Free Report) growth plan which was a real eye-opener for Tracey.

But what about finding investing ideas in your everyday reading?

Readers of Eating Well magazine wouldn’t be surprised by the mania in meatless products as the magazine recently featured 5 of the healthiest store-bought veggie burgers.

Included on the list was Beyond Meat’s burger.

But what about the others on the list? Who makes the other meatless burgers? You might be surprised about what investing ideas lurk there.

What else should you know about finding investing ideas in newspapers and magazines?

Listen to this week’s podcast to find out.

At the center of everything we do is a strong commitment to independent research and sharing its profitable discoveries with investors. This dedication to giving investors a trading advantage led to the creation of our proven Zacks Rank stock-rating system. Since 1988 it has more than doubled the S&P 500 with an average gain of +25.08% per year. These returns cover a period from January 1, 1988 through March 4, 2019. Zacks Rank stock-rating system returns are computed monthly based on the beginning of the month and end of the month Zacks Rank stock prices plus any dividends received during that particular month. A simple, equally-weighted average return of all Zacks Rank stocks is calculated to determine the monthly return. The monthly returns are then compounded to arrive at the annual return. Only Zacks Rank stocks included in Zacks hypothetical portfolios at the beginning of each month are included in the return calculations. Zacks Ranks stocks can, and often do, change throughout the month. Certain Zacks Rank stocks for which no month-end price was available, pricing information was not collected, or for certain other reasons have been excluded from these return calculations.
